YOGA GETS ON GREGOR’S NIRVANA
As told at Feathered Pipe Ranch, July 6, 2007.
By Barry S. Willdorf

Some of you may recall that for 5 years, I updated you on the adventures of Gregor the Lotus who lived in his home in Muddy Waters Pond. Well, I’m sorry to have to tell you that Gregor will not be with us this year.

I just received an email from him. It reads as follows: Read the rest of this entry »

For those of you who have joined us in the middle of Gregor’s adventures, I will explain:

Gregor is a lotus who lives in Muddy Waters, a pond that can be found in the very middle of the Great State of Imagination. Gregor, like his namesake, can metamorphose, which is very fortunate because without that ability, there wouldn’t be much of a story. He’d never go anywhere or do anything.
As usual, the opinions expressed by Gregor and the other characters in this tale are their own and however distasteful, should not be attributed to the author or Feathered Pipe Ranch, both of whom are well-known to have no opinions whatsoever.
No loti have been injured during the creation of this tale.

“Cough…cough…” Gregor cleared his lotus throat and looked down with his lotus eyes. “Oh my god,” he exclaimed. “I can’t see the bottom. What’s with all this mud?” Read the rest of this entry »

Those of you who were here last year may recall the story of Gregor the lotus. Well, I’m sad to say that he has not lived happily ever after. A year of therapy seems to have done Gregor very little good. The only noticeable change has been his taste in literature. Gregor has recently rekindled a childhood affection for Lewis Carroll and as with everything else he does, Gregor has gone a bit overboard. (Unfortunately, he has also developed an addiction for reality television.) So let’s look in on the little guy and see what’s up. Read the rest of this entry »
